Firearms designed in Malaysia a reality soon
LinkPETALING JAYA: For four years, the staff at Vita Berapi (M) Sdn Bhd have toiled at research and development.
But they will enjoy the fruits of their labour soon: The little-known Malaysian company is all set to produce the first made-in-Malaysia range of firearms.
Vita Berapi managing director Syed Yusoff Syed Abdullah said the company would open its first firearms manufacturing factory in Rawang by the end of the year.
He said the company hoped to supply its products to the Malaysian armed forces and other security forces.
"We have seven types of weapons, ranging from sidearms to rifles and even a pistol for sports.
"We believe that we can compete in the local and regional markets."
The company had spent much on research and development of its firearms, hiring designers from Belarus for the job.
Apart from the LP04 sports pistol, the company will also produce the Hicap Compact automatic pistol, LP01 combat pistol, LP01A automatic combat pistol (mini machine gun), LP02 sub machine gun, LP03 sub machine gun (modified), LP06 rifle and LP05 sniper rifle.
"The sports pistol was specially designed by a former Belarus shooting champion who is now the head of design at Vita Berapi. The pistol can hold up to five bullets at a time and is accurate up to 25 metres," Syed Yusoff said.
Vita Berapi’s pistol and combat pistol also have a range accuracy of 25 metres, while the automatic combat pistol’s accuracy goes up to 100 metres.
The range accuracy increases to 150 metres for both the submachine guns, while the accuracy for the rifle and sniper rifle is 600 metres and 2.5km respectively.
Ammunition for the firearms are 9mm calibre, with the exception of the rifle and sniper rifle, which use 5.56mm and 12.7mm calibre bullets respectively.
The rifles can be equipped with scopes and night vision sights, while the sniper rifle comes equipped with an optical sight.

If the quality is on par with the malayan AUG, I rather pass
what, the SAR-21?Originally Posted by Freibier

SAR-21 is from Singapore, not Malaysia. Malaysia produces the Steyr AUG in license, but they are reportedly of poor quality.
no that deal fell through, AUG's are still made in Austria
I didnt say that the production went to Malaysia, I said they were license produced in Malaysia:
The export version became the AUG – “Armee Universal Gewehr” (Universal Army Assault Rifle). Remarkable success was achieved by licensing its production in Australia and Malaysia as well as by exports to Ireland, New Zealand, Tunis, Saudi Arabia, Oman and the US.

=o
Optimism is a wonderful thing.
5 round capacity? whats it fire? a .68 ball?
austrian AUG > aussie stg77 < Malaysian AUG XD
btw the SAR-21 does use sonic welding for its plastic parts so its pretty good a defence weapon , as for an assault weapon...oh well it has drawbacks:
propiatary magazines...WTF??? why cant they just use m16/ar15 mags??even the AUG has NATO stocks...maybe next time...maybe...
****ty fire selector switch...at the back??? LMAO!guess i have to pull the trigger very fast then XD
inability for quick barrel switching ...rthe AUG has it , why dont you?
any FYI the malaysia army/military got a ****load of weapons stolen a wile back when some goons drove up and INTO a base armory WITHOUT any resistance...LMAO!
I dont quite understand... Australian F88 rated lower than the Austrian and Malaysian AUG? Because of the different safety?
Ermm... how does the used manufacturing technology contribute to it being a "defense" or "assault" weapon? Either it is rugged, or it isnt.btw the SAR-21 does use sonic welding for its plastic parts so its pretty good a defence weapon , as for an assault weapon...oh well it has drawbacks:
Why proprietary magazines? Simple, Polymer mags offer distinct advantages over the StanAg mags. Apart from that, the SAR-21 is also available with a StanAg compatible magwell. And the AUG has a non-StanAg polymer mag as well, but can be converted (as can be most non-compatible new rifles).propiatary magazines...WTF??? why cant they just use m16/ar15 mags??even the AUG has NATO stocks...maybe next time...maybe...
Why should it? The SAR-21 comes in different versions/lengths from the factory. Although quick barrel change is a nice gizmo, there is a reason why not many rifles have this feature: you rarely need it with a general issue weapon.inability for quick barrel switching ...rthe AUG has it , why dont you?
sorry about the wrong symbol...typing too fast
should have been austrian > aussie > malay
defence or assault that was my personal opinon , yours can always differ ^^
barrel change isnt a gizmo , its a godsend IMHO.
And the bullpup that i really wants is the FN F2000
A lot of match pistols do not have high cap mags, its not really needed.
i assume thats the same for the military version though?
Any idea when they will complete the project???
